Company Employee • Promote the growth of the company and its international activities • Support globalization - Develop “global mindset”, business breadth, cultural sensitivity and flexibility at all levels. • Promote pool of international-oriented employees and internationalize teams in different countries • Create better “employer brand” • Improve skills / knowledge transfer between countries to realize synergies • Results in retention of key players we risk losing – if using international environment for job rotation Benefits • Gain international skills and professional experience • Wider perspective • Enhance own skills • Targeted job enrichment • Improve intercultural competences • Travelling and using language skills • International trainings / events • Networking • Job opportunities abroad • Cultural differences • Legal implications • Implementation of mother company decision / tools • In some cases increasing company costs Challenges • Adaptation to international work environment, superior, team, tasks, etc. • Language / culturalbarrier • Difficulties in finding right communication partner
